I feel like old af now that I’ve watched two huge sites implode due to mismanagement. I was a Digg refuge way back, and now here I am on lemmy…
I remember the day that Slashdot sold out.
I rarely go to slashdot anymore, but still do occasionally. What did they do?
They were independent then they weren't. I don't recall any deeply controversial scandal beyond that. But the content and vibe was never the same after they "sold out". They are a shell of their former self... they used to be "the thing". Now they're just something some people know about.
Exactly. It started feeling corporate.
